CNN-IBN May 03, 2013
New Delhi: The CBI on Friday arrested Vijay Singla, the nephew of Railway Minister Pawan Kumar Bansal, in Chandigarh on bribery charges. His arrest was followed by that of Railway Board Member (Staff) Mahesh Kumar in Mumbai.
Mahesh Kumar was accused of paying Singla Rs 90 lakh to get a lucrative position as Railway Board Member (Electrical). The money was caught in Chandigarh, which led to a spate of raids in Delhi, Mumbai, Chandigarh and Bangalore and the subsequent arrests.
Mahesh Kumar was made the Railway Board Member (Staff) only on Thursday. Prior to that, he was the GM, Western Railways. Kumar also has a Guinness World Record in his name for commissioning the world's 'Largest Route Relay Interlocking' at Old Delhi Railway Station in the shortest possible time of 36 hours and he is the only officer from the Indian Railway to have achieved this.
